I recently made a chocolate cake with whole milk greek yogurt instead of milk or sour cream. When it was done, I did the toothpick and touch test and all of the signs were all pointing at it being done. Although, when I trimmed the skin from the top of it, I noticed how you could squish the cake between your fingers. Is this just a sign of the cake being really moist, am I just being paranoid because I've never had a cake that moist? Please help a girl out.

sounds underbaked maybe -- is there any more domed section on top you could slice off -- you might be able to see the difference better in the baked and raw areas -- although it could be just way juicy too

well and the skin could just be real squishy often is -- although yogurt can have more water in it than sour cream -- hard to say -- if it didn't sink in it's probably ok but that's not a hard and fast rule either --

maybe -- maybe not

know what -- you could just slice it in half from top to bottom and check that way -- then glue it back together with icing -- same color icing if possible -- because if part of it is raw you probably could cut that section off -- in a perfect world -- and have a little bit shorter cake
